One Piece Film: GOLD (2022)

One of my all time favorites.

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

One of the most moving animated movies I have seen ! It reflects life, to a degree that you can identify. The message, that your circumstances effects the way you grow up, even tho at the end of the day you have your own choices, but unfortunately it leaves marks. One piece reflects the world we are living in right now.

One Piece: GOLD was so disappointing. It is a reminder of how the show has vastly outgrown its protagonists, and keeps trying to make them seem younger, while the fan base in the real world grows older.From an adolescent perspective, one could argue that the last two movies were strong as far as storytelling goes. One Piece Gold however is a mailed in script. No longer One Piece able to merge the impossible paradox of realistic story-telling with the magic of Disney storytelling. The formula is just too obvious at this point, and is especially visible in this movie.The first few scenes are quite entertaining and the animation is visibly more fluid and dynamic than we have yet seen, but Luffy and his pals are not all that much different than a group of kids getting a personal and pandering tour of Wonka's Chocolate factory. In this case, the factory is Gran Tesoro; the worlds largest entertainment city, run by an unimaginative super villain who enslaves anyone that falls in debt to the city (mostly through obsessive gambling in the giant casino). But he also enslaves their families, and he is untouchable by the world government because he bribes them.We've been here before, and unlike film Z where the villain was a substantial and interesting character, Guild Tesoro is nobody, and the inclusion of a backstory for him (which the movie introduces in the middle of a battle) doesn't make him any less cheesy. The whole thing feels like watching a video game. It is a rushed and contrived series of action sequences, that uses its protagonists as little more than models for the latest in Munchkinland fashion. As usual, Luffy is a caricature in a world of characters, and once again we are asked to accept his naiveté as charm, and his boyish recklessness as pure determination. Because he hasn't grown in maturity however, that gets harder and harder to do. Yet the series always allows him to seem intelligent simply because he can recognize the difference between good and evil, and get to be the one to save the day.The appearance of Rob Lucci, Sabo and Koala are quite refreshing. It is equally frustrating when considering that Sabo is way more qualified to be the protagonist of the series. As the #2 of the revolutionary army, he has a vital role to play in the universe. Luffy, just wants to party.Film Gold's, sole strength is that it is visually spectacular, but it is the Batman and Robin of One Piece movies. Cartoony, lightweight, and annoying.

I used to be a hardcore OP fan until recently (the Dressrosa arch was the last straw(-hat)).I was hoping that this, being a movie, set apart from the main storyline, we would get epic fights, nice storyline, bad-ass characters.And yet...It IS nice to see old characters but they are just decorative. Fan- service. Same for Sabo / Lucci. The main villain is shallow and they tried to put some historical background to him (enslavement, loss of someone dear) but it just doesn't work. OP film Z was far much better.Regarding time-skip Zoro and Sanji, yes they are totally useless.Well, I could write so much more in this direction but I don't want to. I think, loyal, old fans of OP like me would be very disappointed. Only new fans or children can like this one.

Glad to watch this movie and rated excellent. Those who are OP fans should watch it too. Makes me so excited until i wanna to watch it again. Worth my money to watch this OP film Gold. Don't hesitate to spent your money on OP. Love OP: film Gold so much <3 Find sometime to spare yourself and go to the nearer to your house and watch the OP. Because is too awesome to watch it!! Young people and teens should be the fans and go ahead and watch it. Anyways , is about something that Luffy that they gambling in a casino and who have some luck. Ended up they had to fight with a group of enemy. If you want to have more information then you can go watch it on the released date 25th Aug......
